Verdict

GENOVA FLAVOR (5) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 4.5 lengths from the winner in third over 7f at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MEGU (6) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage tenth over 7f at this track. Among the leading chances. T'S WISH (3) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing tenth and beaten 18 lengths starting at $8.60. Likely improver with strong prospects. FIRE STAR (9) has not won for a long while. Last raced on May 27 when beaten 8 lengths into sixth at this track over 7f. Best figures measure up nicely. Should be about the money.
